That looks photoshopped indeed. You should demand some sort of
authenticy I think... like a recent newspaper with date or something
hehe; isn't that also what hostage takers do? Hehe...being kidnapped and
having to pose with an IDL book for evidence of being alive haha...
Sorry, I'm heading off-topic. I, for the record, already have found some
volunteers willing to pose with your book ;) Now we only have to get a
copy of it first..
Cheers,
Laurens
